There are 3 cities David loved most, Number 1 is Brunswick, CA, his home town. Number 2 is Los Angeles, where he was supposed to go. But instead, he ended up in number 3. Heck, he didn't even know number 3 until he found it. But I'm getting ahead of myself. Let's start from the beginning.
It started one morning in Brunswick, CA at his home. He graduated high school, packed up his bags, and was ready to hit the big city of LA. The sun was just waking up on the horizon when David got up. His mom forced his little brother Jack, who was 6 years younger than David, to wake up. David only had 2 suitcases, one in each hand, and walked down the stairs.
David was taller than most kids (or "young adults" as he likes to call it) his age, he always wore his blue sweatshirt with any shirt he could wear under it. His hair is usually a dark brown. But in the summer, it turns to a blonde color. With his dark blue jeans and his red Converses, he reached the last step of the stairs. Then, he heard Jack whining.
"Mom, can I move with David to get away from the dumb kids at school?"
His mother was surprised.
"Come on," she said, "you're only 12 years old. I'm sure you can make some friends at the new middle school."
Jack groaned.
David picked up a piece of toast.
"Mom," he said, "I'm in a hurry so I have to leave to the train station ASAP."
He saw his mother with tears in her eyes.
"What's wrong?" he said.
"Oh," she said in the verge of tears, "it just seems like you were a baby just yesterday, and now my baby's moving to LA."
"Stop with it, Mom" he chuckled.
She gave him a big hug which seem it lasted an hour before letting go. He said goodbye to her and Jack and promised to call her every day. He walked outside and went to find the bus stop that lead to the train station. Next thing he knew, he missed the bus. Panicking, he ran to the train station as fast as he could. He didn't care what the neighbors think. He made to the train station and he went to the booth.
"Oneā¦.ticket...LA..." he said
"Sorry pal," said the man in the booth, "the last train left 2 minutes ago."
David was shocked. He missed the bus and the train. He thought that God was preventing him to move there. He sat down in grief on a bench. He couldn't believe he missed it. Suddenly, he noticed a light on the left of his eye. He looked to where it was coming from. It disappeared. All there is was a tunnel with a cardboard sign saying Train to the Big City 7:30! He looked at his watch. 7:25! He still had time to catch the train to LA. But little did he know that "The Big City" wasn't LA but a strange city called- You know what, I should stop skipping ahead.
David ran down the tunnel for a long time. Until he found it. But there was something strange. The train station was in poor hygiene and looked abandoned. The train looked brand new and it was labeled The Big City. He heard a voice from the conductor, but he couldn't see his face.
"Heading to The Big City?" he said.
"Yep," David said, "it's LA, right?"
"Yeah, sure." he said back.
David walked in the train and set his suitcases down. He found a seat and sat down. But, he noticed something strange. No one else was on except him. He decided to make a run for it, but the doors shut close. The train started speeding up. It was a tunnel that looked like it would never end. Fear and adrenaline was pumping through David's veins. It made a turn and he saw it was heading straight for a wall! He screamed and closed his eyes shut.
But then, he saw a blue light open in front of the train and the outside turned to a swirly blue. It lasted for less than 10 seconds until they were back on the rails again. He noticed something strange, the outside looked more "fake" than objects usually do. The train stopped at the same looking station, but it looked "fake". The doors opened, and he quickly grabbed his suitcases and ran out. He walked up the stairs and almost screamed, he wasn't in LA.
There was no humans there at all. Just animals. Not just any animals, but anthropomorphic animals. There were walking, talking animals. They were almost like furries! The strange part is that they were looking at him as weirdly as he thought of them. He walked through this strange town. People were giving him strange looks. He finally found a sign that stated Welcome to Zootopia.
"Zootopia?" he said. I thought this was-"
Next thing he knew, he felt a sharp object on his neck and passed out.
